Chapter 6 The Purpose Is War

Jin Bozhe made Yuan Gai Mingdong's words thunderous, both inside and out. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yuangai Mingdong is not proficient in Han culture, but Zhuge Liang's demon is too famous, so he has such a character in his impression, and he vaguely knows that Zhuge Liang invented the chain crossbow. The Shenji crossbow was improved by Goguryeo craftsmen based on the repeating crossbow captured from Yang Guang that year, and it was only five years ago. Prior to this, Goguryeo did not have the technology to make chain crossbows.
Therefore, Yuan Gai Mingdong instinctively thought that even if there was some technological gap between the two countries, it would not be too far apart. Zhuge Liang, who invented the chain crossbow, is also a modern figure. In order to put gold on his country's face, he described Zhuge Liang as an apprentice who stole from Goguryeo to prove that his country's science and technology are truly developed. Compared with the Tang crossbow of the Tang Dynasty and their divine crossbow, there is a world of difference.
Jin Bozhe is different, he is easy to talk about and knows some Chinese history, and knows that Zhuge Liang is a figure more than 500 years ago. A man of God who invented the serial crossbow five hundred years ago, a country that mastered the art of the repeater just five years ago. Between each other, it is obvious who is following who is following suit.
Although Kim Bo-chul has the cheekiness of the Goguryeo people, he was also ashamed of Yuangai Mingdong's words at this moment, and he didn't plan to remind him, but he felt that if he didn't say it at this time, if he talked about it in front of others, wouldn't it be a big shame for Goguryeo, and reminded: "That Zhuge Liang was a thorough prime minister in the late Han Dynasty five hundred years ago. ”
"Ah......" Yuan Gai Mingdong was dumbfounded, only then did he know that he had made a big joke, but he was willing to lose this big face with a good nature, and muttered: "What do you know, that Zhuge Liang is thorough, he cast a powerful spell, and he came to my Goguryeo to learn the technique before going back." ”
"Uh......" Kim Bo-cheol had nothing to say, rolled his eyes, and finally saw what was full of strong words, and muttered: "Instead of saying this, it is better to say that Zhuge Liang is our Goguryeo." Although his voice was soft, it fell into Yuangai Mingdong's ears word for word
Yuangai Mingdong's eyes lit up, and he smiled happily: "Yes...... That Zhuge Liang has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and it is obvious that I am a Goguryeo person, how can there be such a talent among the incompetent southerners? He looked like he was trying to be a pawn, and in a few words, he was invincible and arranged an ancestor for Zhuge Liang.
Jin Bozhe thought that he was shameless enough, but now he realized that he was still so far behind Yuan Gai Mingdong.
The vast grassland, as far as the eye can see.
Hundreds of horsemen galloped on the grassland, the knights all tied their hair into a bunch, tied tightly with a green scarf, wearing a samurai uniform with an oblique collar and left side, rolled sleeves and exposed arms, waist ring armor belt, wearing knives, swords and other things, a style of jujube red palladium deer leather boots, oblique daggers, wearing a wide robe, when the horse galloped, the wide robe flew backwards like a cloud, compared with the strong suit with a tight belt, a movement and a stillness, especially showing a clear line of beauty, fierce and chic.
The leader is in his thirties, with a fierce body, sparkling eyes, and a kind of prestige without anger.
Du He walked side by side with Xue Rengui and asked in a low voice, "How is this cavalry?" ”
Xue Rengui exclaimed: "There is nothing to say, on the subtlety of riding skills, the tacit understanding of cooperation." It is also difficult to find a cavalry team comparable to it in my Datang. The grassland people really have a unique level of riding. ”
Du He agreed: "This is the characteristic of the steppe people, when we came, we passed through several tribes, did you notice anything?" ”
Xue Rengui said: "Along the way, I saw that all the children on the grassland were playing with pony bows and arrows, they were playing and playing, but they rode the foal at a young age, and what the situation was like when they became adults can be imagined." ”
"Not bad!" Du He said in a deep voice: "The grassland is not as good as our Han people, our Han children need to read and study, but the children on the grassland only have horses and bows and arrows, which accumulate over time." Even if they are idiots, in twenty years, they will become excellent knights and marksmen, and this kind of soil is exactly what we lack in China. This is also the fundamental reason why the grassland peoples have been able to compete with China with weakness for hundreds of years. ”
Xue Rengui agreed with Du He's statement, but said unconvinced: "What the general said is indeed true, but my Tang soldiers may not be inferior to them." ”
Looking at the proud Xue Rengui, Du He knew that what he said was right. Since the founding of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there has been an inextricable hatred between China and other races: the dog Rong in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the Xiongnu in the Qin and Han dynasties, the Wuhu in the Jin and Jin dynasties, etc., all brought heavy casualties to China.
Looking at the entire history of China, only the four dynasties of the Qin, Han, Tang and Ming dynasties can really occupy a decisive advantage over foreign races. The First Emperor Dynasty's Meng Tian's expulsion of the Xiongnu, the Wudi Dynasty's Mobei Expedition, the Tang Dynasty's four-sided attack, and the Ming Dynasty's Battle of Sweeping the North.
These are the most powerful, proud, and proud periods of China.
Du He is honored to live in this era, the Tang Dynasty in this period is still martial arts, although the Tang soldiers are slightly inferior to the people on the grassland in horsemanship, but the armament, morale, blood, sense of honor and so on are generally above the people on the grassland.
Du He was also ambitious, and said in a deep voice: "What you said is right, but there is no dynasty in the world that will never decay, and Tang soldiers cannot always be above the soldiers and horses of foreign races." So there is only one thing we have to do, when this Datang is at its strongest, conquer all the alien races that can threaten the existence of Datang. ”
Xue Rengui has been following Du He for more than a year, and under the subtle influence, he has already been affected, not my race, his heart must be different, deep into his brain, listening to Du He say this, he also felt his blood boiling, and said in a deep voice: "The last general is willing to follow the general and sweep away all the obstacles that block Datang with the general." ”
Seeing that Da Du was coming from a distance, Du He stopped the topic with a smile.
Today, under the leadership of Dadushe, they visited Xue Yantuo's horse farm, and also came to the grassland where wild horses forage, personally tamed a group of wild wild horses, and experienced the customs of the grassland. Immediately, Duhe made another request to hunt.
This request was made for Xue Rengui, who couldn't afford to buy a horse because of his poor family, and riding skills were his biggest drawback. After his guidance with Luo Tong, Xue Rengui has made great progress in riding, but there are always certain problems in riding and shooting.
Xue Rengui's archery skills can be regarded as the first in the world, but his archery skills were practiced by hunting in the mountains and forests, and once he arrived on horseback, that terrifying archery could not exert half of its power. The art of riding and archery of the peoples on the grassland is commonplace for them. He wanted Xue Rengui to secretly learn their skills, and then come back to deal with them in the next year.
Without a doubt, hunting is the activity that best demonstrates mounted archery.
Dadushi was worried that Du He would be in danger, so he went to prepare first.
Du He also took the time to talk to Xue Rengui about his feelings after coming to the grassland.
Maybe it's because the hero sees the same thing, and the two have surprisingly the same idea, which leads to a continuation of the dialogue.
Dadu She's came to Du He and said, "General Du, everything is ready, there is a stream running through the east and west in the northwest of here, and there is a fertile pasture field nearby. Many animals like to go there to drink water and feed, and it is the best place for hunting. ”
Du He smiled and said, "The guest is as good as the host." ”
This hunt was not his intention, as long as he could achieve his goal, it would be the same for him wherever he went.
The group headed northwest.
Xue Rengui knew Du He's intentions, and he also watched very carefully along the way, remembering the riding and archery methods on the grassland little by little, and preparing to practice after returning to the camp.
Xue Rengui has a foundation in archery, and his riding skills are gradually keeping up, and his riding and archery are insufficient, and what he lacks is some special techniques that have been honed. As long as these techniques have been practiced for more than ten years, practice makes perfect. Xue Rengui didn't have this time, so he could only steal the teacher.
Du He glanced at Xue Rengui in front of the horse, and saw that he seemed to have comprehended, so he smiled and did not bother.
The prey of the steppes has been tested by the jungle, and is ten times more cunning than in the mountains. However, no matter how cunning an animal is, it cannot escape the hands of hunters.
Generously setting up a group of people is commonplace for hunting, and Xue Rengui constantly verifies some of the skills he has learned. As for Duhe, he has long been dead set on archery, and the title of marksman is destined to be unrelated to him. But the flying knife he carries on his body is no less than the existence of a bow and arrow.
Under their strength, this hunt is destined to have a good harvest.
They did not give up until dusk came.
If it weren't for the banquet in the evening, Du He would not be willing to leave.
Over the years, he has been accustomed to seeing the wealth and strength of the Tang Dynasty, and the unique customs on this grassland make him particularly nostalgic.
Looking at the hunting grassland behind him, he said in his heart: "It's a pity that such a fun place is taken care of by a group of barbarians like Xue Yantuo, how can I capture them." ”
There is nothing unique about the evening banquet.
To put it bluntly, it's a feast of flattery.
Today's Datang is powerful, who dares to touch the tiger's whiskers?
One by one, the leaders of the alien race are all enthusiastic, and they only regard Du He as a paternal flattery.
All kinds of bizarre gifts emerge in endlessly.
Du He has never had the habit of accepting bribes, but in the face of this group of alien leaders who sharpened their heads and wanted to please themselves, with the intention of not accepting nothing, they let people accept them one by one.
Du He pretended to be refreshing, gulped wine, and ate meat. He liked Du Kang's kind of fine wine with a low degree of mellow and delicious, and the mare's milk wine was not very much to his taste, especially the vague smell in the wine, which made him a little disgusted, but for the sake of the night plan, he also forced himself to drink a lot, a lot, until he was drunk and hazy.
With Xue Rengui's support, Du He staggered out of the banquet hall and returned to the camp where he was.
With a drunken spirit, he summoned Luo Tong, Xi Junmai and other generals to the camp tent to discuss important matters, looked at the generals, and said: "You all want to know the true meaning of our trip." Let me tell you, the purpose of our visit is to force Xue Yantuo to go to war with my Tang Dynasty. ”
